Jim Beam column: Blue Cross sale questioned Published 6:55 am Wednesday, August 23, 2023The $2.5 billion sale of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana to a company named Elevance Health seemed to be sailing along smoothly until some legislators and policyholders got more information on what was happening. A local attorney, who is also a Blue Cross and Blue Shield policyholder, emailed me about his concerns. Stine said the 1.9 million Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana policyholders will have no say over how the foundation operates. The delayed hearings may be helpful in answering that question and many others that have been asked about the sale of Blue Cross and Blue Shield. The 1.9 million Blue Cross and Blue Shield policyholders deserve to know with certainty whether the health care coverage they have come to know and appreciate will continue.
